On the MIMO Capacity for Distributed System under Composite Rayleigh/Rician Fading and Shadowing

Wireless channels are commonly affected by short-term fading and long-term fading (shadowing). The shadowing effects must be taken into account also when mobility is present in the wireless scenario. Using a composite fading model, the total channel capaci ...

Listening to Distances and Hearing Shapes

Ivan Dokmanic

A central theme of this thesis is using echoes to achieve useful, interesting, and sometimes surprising results. One should have no doubts about the echoes' constructive potential; it is, after all, demonstrated masterfully by Nature. Just think about the ...

Physical Layer Cooperation

Ayan Sengupta

Information theory has long pointed to the promise of physical layer cooperation in boosting the spectral efficiency of wireless networks. Yet, the optimum relaying strategy to achieve the network capacity has till date remained elusive. Recently however, ...

Approximate Ergodic Capacity of a Class of Fading Two-User Two-Hop Networks

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang

The fading AWGN two-user two-hop network is considered where the channel coefficients are independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) according to a continuous distribution and vary over time. For a broad class of channel distributions, the ergodic su ...

Diffusion LMS strategies for parameter estimation over fading wireless channels

Ali H. Sayed

We propose a modified diffusion strategy for parameter estimation in sensor networks where nodes exchange information over fading wireless channels. We show that the effect of fading can be mitigated by incorporating local equalization coefficients into th ...

Approximate Ergodic Capacity of a Class of Fading 2x2x2 Networks

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Chien-Yi Wang

We study a 2-user 2-hop network with 2 relays in which channel coefficients are independently drawn from continuous distributions and vary over time. For a broad class of channel distributions, we characterize the ergodic sum capacity within a constant num ...

Does Fast Adaptive Modulation Always Outperform Slow Adaptive Modulation?

Laura Toni

Link adaptation techniques are important modern and future wireless communication systems to cope with quality of service fluctuations in fading channels. These techniques require the knowledge of the channel state obtained with a portion of resources devo ...

Graph-based codes for quantize-map-and-forward relaying

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Ayfer Özgür Aydin, Siddhartha Brahma, Ayan Sengupta

We present a structured Quantize-Map-and- Forward (QMF) scheme for cooperative communication over wireless networks, that employs LDPC ensembles for the node operations and message-passing algorithms for decoding. We demonstrate through extensive simulatio ...

On the Broadcast Capacity of Wireless Networks With Cooperative Relays

Michael Christoph Gastpar

A fundamental problem in wireless networks is determining the broadcast capacity, i.e., the maximum data transfer rate from a given node to every other node in a relay network. This paper studies the scaling of the broadcast capacity for a network with a s ...
